Daniel Salazar from S531. This is Dani's intro to our class, you can visit his blog and leave a comment..

I'm currently taking the Advertising and PR course at URBE. I'm only 18 years old, though I'm turning 19 pretty soon!

I love music, even though I do NOT play any musical instrument. Particularly, I prefer listening to English/German/French music because I enjoy not only the music and rhythm but the language itself. I love listening to alternative rock bands such as Oasis, Snow Patrol, Coldplay, Kasabian, Crowded House and the list goes on and on... As i said before, I'm studying at URBE and this blog is made because of my new lovely english teacher (english 5- Class: S-531). Hi professor!, that's the way she prefers to be called. I love traveling. I still dream about going to Europe asap (as soon as possible). That's my next travel spot as i hope to stay in Paris for a whole week and another one in London. I also love (watching) Tennis! i can spend 5 hours watching a tennis match without zapping on the TV! , isn't it such a great talent? I hate onions and hypocrite people who show you a nice side of 'em but behind you they'll go talking bad things about you! I hope to post another enter as soon as i can handle this blog thing! I'm pretty old-fashioned since I don't know how to use it!
